Things I don't care about right now.

I don't care one way or the other that Lance Armstrong is now admitting that he doped and lied about it. Partly I don't care because it's a part of the sport culture and he was by far not the only one doing it; he was simply better at it and lied harder and longer about it. Partly I don't care because...meh...in the grand scheme of things, it doesn't matter. Mostly I don't care because I just can't be bothered to work up enough giveadamn about the whole thing.

I don't care if the dancing toddler in Starbucks bothers you. She's not hurting anyone or anything; she's not being loud. She's just dancing to the music. I don't care if my not caring bothers you, too. She's cute, and you suck.

I don't care if you're in a "huge hurry." I was there first, in line before you, and therefore am ordering before you. If you're in that big of a hurry, don't come into an almost always busy Starbucks during the lunch rush. Go across the street to Burger King to get some coffee. They're never busy. Or the Starbucks inside the Safeway across the street. But I am not buying your excuse for poor behavior that you're in a huge hurry...I don't give a damn today.

I don't care if some football player had a pretend girlfriend who pretend died, whether or not he knew she wasn't real or not. People create relationships online. Some are very real. People get fooled by some. Sucky people lie. Sometimes people meet up, sometimes they just talk online for years and never meet face to face. It's not new, and it's not especially newsworthy. It's just...gossip.

I don't care if that chocolate cinnamon bread I tried today has a bazillion calories. It was damned good and totally worth it. But cripes...now I'm always going to know how good it is, and will have to restrain myself from buying more tomorrow.

Dammit.

I am with you on the sports people! Kids that went to school with Lance say he was a bully form 6th grade on. Who cares! Some people do not understand cute kids or have manners!

I will not be trying the chocolate cinnamon bread because just the smell of Starbucks causes my asthma to kick up!

You picked some really great things not to care about today. Isn't it really sucky when you discover something totally delicious and realize that you really shouldn't eat it?

I agree with you; all the "news" is getting sillier with the so-called celebrities and sports figures. Who cares? Not me.

The bread, however.....I could work up a good caring for that!

A dancing toddler annoys people? That would have been so cute, some peope are just grumpy, grumpy, grumpy.

We agrees with your "mehs", don't care, not newsworthy. Time to nap.
